When is the Uefa Champions League Final 2018?
Liverpool has set up a repeat of their 1981 meeting against Real Madrid despite a first Champions League defeat of the season at the Stadio Olimpico against AS Roma.
A chaotic 4-2 semi-final second leg loss to Roma saw Liverpool progress 7-6 on aggregate, with victory secured thanks to Sadio Mane's 19th of the season and the rare sight of Georginio Wijnaldum's first away goal in almost three years.
A fortuitous own goal by James Milner in between had put the hosts back in the game, while Edin Dzeko's strike shortly after half-time ensured the Reds endured a testing conclusion and two late goals for Radja Nainngolan - including a penalty with the last kick of the game - came too late for Roma.
But Liverpool moves on from defeating the same opponents against whom they won their fourth European Cup - in this very stadium in 1984 - to facing the club they beat 37 years ago for their third.When is the Uefa Champions League Final 2018?
